Chapter 688 - Chapter 688: She’s Actually Mrs. Zuo (4) (2/2)

Zi Ran was stunned and immediately turned to look at her. Seeing Anhao’s calm gaze, her heart gradually settled.

Since Anhao was so sure that nothing would happen, Zi Ran followed everyone into the office with ease.

When they reached the design department’s office, Xiao Qiu didn’t immediately search Anhao’s office to prevent others from finding out that she was being framed. Instead, she started searching the desks closest to the door one by one.

Every desk was carefully searched under the watchful eyes of everyone, including Minister Qin and the others. Even the sanitary pads hidden in the drawers of the female colleagues were not spared. The female colleagues immediately blushed and looked at Xiao Qiu with resentment. They felt that she had gone too far.

She had just been kept by an old man and had gotten a few jewelry. After losing them, she actually wanted to search everyone’s desks. It was really too outrageous.

Such complaints gradually gathered in the hearts of many colleagues. For a moment, everyone stared at Xiao Qiu’s hand, wanting to see whose drawer she could find something in.

There were still two rows left to be searched. Xiao Qiu was just putting on an act. When she got inside, she glanced at Anhao’s office and said,”A few days ago, Director Gu was very envious of the jewelry I wore. Moreover, Director Gu doesn’t seem to have much money on hand. I actually hope that this matter has nothing to do with you.”

As she spoke, she walked to Anhao’s office. Everyone looked inside suspiciously and then at Anhao.

Xiao Qiu crouched down beside Anhao’s desk and pretended to open the other drawers. Finally, she opened the drawer with the diamond necklace, but she couldn’t find it after searching for a long time.

Her expression froze for a moment, then she looked at Gu Anhao abruptly. However, Gu Anhao smiled and raised her hand to signal for her to continue searching.

Xiao Qiu recalled that Gu Anhao had been alone in the office for the past two days and wondered if she had been discovered long ago.

However, she had been injured for the past two days. She shouldn’t have been able to open the drawer to look at the unrelated documents, but there really wasn’t anything!

Just as Xiao Qiu pretended not to find anything and was about to go search someone else’s desk, Anhao said,”You’ve been searching everyone’s desks since you came in. Why didn’t you think of searching your desk first?”

Xiao Qiu stopped in her tracks and felt a chill run down her spine. She turned to Anhao.

“That’s right, Qiu. Did you leave it in your desk? Go and look for it ” Her colleagues also started to encourage her, and for a moment, they were all watching Xiao Qiu as a joke.

Xiao Qiu hesitated for a moment. Even if Gu Anhao really did return the item to her, she would only be scolded by Minister Qin for making a mountain out of a molehill. She turned around and was about to walk back to her desk.

At this moment, Anhao quietly raised her hand and patted her chest. When Zi Ran noticed her action, she suddenly asked in surprise,”Sister Anhao, where did the brooch you left here go? Why did she continue to wear such a beautiful brooch? That was the world-famous pet of his!”
